    My point is this, change is a natural part of life, but we do not have to accept all change. What changes should we accept? What changes should we go after? What changes should we praise God for when they come? How do we identify those changes that wi

    People was drawn to Jesus because something out of the ordinary was happening,something super natural, still today they are drawn to Him by our out of the ordaniry life.

    I would like to focus on Luke 5:26 today, it says "And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, we have seen strange things today." I know we can all admit to focusing our attention to strange, or different things. I’ve heard it said people used to go to ...read more

    Why is so much of God’s word narrative? Why did God chose story to instruct us and call us to Christ? There is power in a story. God’s story has the power to save us.

    As we study through the gospel of Luke, or any of the gospels for that matter, we find God’s word communicating with us on a different level than direct instructions. God has chosen to use a wide range of literary genre as he inspired his Word to us. The gospels are more than historical stories ...read more
